Hauge, Ruth Marie (Marriage - 5 June 1952)

St. Mary’s Catholic Church was the scene of the marriage of Miss Ruth Marie Hauge to Donald Jean Teclaw on Thursday, June 5.  The Rev. Father John Pritzl officiated at the 9 o’clock nuptial mass.

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Hauge and the groom is the son of Mrs. Caroline Teclaw of Owen.

The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, wore a chapel length princess style gown, fashioned with a Chantilly lace bodice and a bouffant skirt of nylon tulle.  Her fingertip veil fell from a lace cap head dress, trimmed with seed pearls. She carried a white prayer book and a corsage of sweetheart roses and stephanotis, with showers.

Miss Betty Hauge of Marshfield, who was her sister’s maid of honor, was attired in a strapless sky blue nylon net dress with a fitted jacket. She wore a matching headdress and carried a lace basket of pink carnations and swansonia.

The groom was attended by Paul Firnstahl of Colby, Wis.

A wedding breakfast was served at the Merchants Hotel for the immediate relatives.  The room was appropriately decorated with pink carnations and sweet peas.

Following a honeymoon in Canada the young couple will be at home in Milwaukee for the summer months.

The bride was graduated from the Neillsville High School and from Stout Institute and had been engaged in teaching in Kewaskum.

The groom is a graduate of the Owen High School and of River Falls State Teachers College and is an instructor in the Kewaskum Elementary School.
